Description of the water softener system
This water softener system includes a brine (salt) tank and a resin (media) tank with a backwashing control
valve. Incoming water flows into the control valve and is directed down through the ion exchange softening
resin. This resin exchanges the hardness ions for softer ions. The softened water then returns to the control
valve where it is directed into the service lines.
Periodically the control valve will go through a regeneration cycle. The frequency of this regeneration process
will depend on the size of water softener, incoming water quality and amount of water used. This cycle is
factorypreset to begin at 2:00 A.M. At this time the control valve will draw the brine solution out of the salt tank
and flush both the accumulated hardness and excess salt to the drain. The control valve will then put fresh
water back into the salt tank to make brine for the next regeneration cycle.
Water Quality
The water should be tested to determine the concentration, or levels of the items listed below:
Hardness - Hardness in drinking water is defined as those minerals that dissolve in water having a
positive electrical charge (cat ions). The primary components of hardness are calcium (Ca++) and
magnesium (Mg++) ions. But dissolved iron (Fe++) and manganese (Mn++) also contribute to total
“adjusted” hardness.Hardness produces scale, soap scum and white mineral deposits which shorten
the life of water using appliances, plumbing and fixtures. Water that has less than 1 grain of hardness is
considered to be “soft” water.
pH - A measurement of the acidity of the water. pH is reported on a scale from 0 to 14. Neutral water has a pH
of 7.0, lower values indicate acidic water. If your pH is below 6.8 you mayconsider installing an acid neutralizer
before the water softener to elevate the pH.
Iron - A naturally occurring metallic element. Iron levels in excess of 0.3 milligrams/liter (mg/l) combine with
oxygen causing orange or red (rust) stains on plumbing fixtures. Iron exists in some water sources in clear
water (ferrous) state, red water (ferric) state or bacterial form. Iron levels that exceed 2.0 mg/l require special
ion exchange resin for reduction, or if bacterial or ferric (red water) iron is present or iron level exceeds 4.0 mg/l,
an iron filter should be installed ahead of this water softener.
Manganese - A naturally occurring metallic element. Manganese levels as low as 0.05 milligrams/liter (mg/l)
can combine with oxygen to cause dark brown or black staining on fixtures. Additionally, manganese can cause
an odor in the water similar to a “rotten egg” smell. This water softener may reduce manganese as well as iron;
however, an iron filter maybe required in some cases.
Tannin - A naturally occurring humic acid. Tannin is caused by water passing through decaying vegetation.
Coffee and Tea are prime examples of tannin in water. Tannin levels as low as 0.5 milligrams per liter can
cause a yellow discoloration in water. Consult your dealer for a system designed to remove both tannin and
hardness.
Hydrogen Sulfide - A naturally occurring gas. Hydrogen sulfide, more commonly referred to as sulfur gas,
causes a distinct odor similar to “rotten eggs.” Due to its gaseous nature, hydrogen sulfide must be tested at the
well site within 1 minute of drawing the sample. If sulfur is present additional equipment will be required. The
OXY3 iron filter can typicallytreat up to 2 milligrams per liter of sulfur gas.

Location Considerations
The proper location to install the water softener system will ensure optimum performance and
satisfactory water quality. The following factors should be considered in selecting the location of the equipment.
1. The water softener should be installed after the pressure tank (private well system only).
2. The water softener should be installed as close as possible (preferably within 15’) to an adequate
floor or laundry drain capable of handling the backwash cycle volume and flow rate (refer to unit
specifications).
3. All water conditioning equipment should be installed prior to the water heater. Water temperatures
exceeding 100°F can damage the internal components of the control valve and filter tank. Install
with at least 10’ of pipe before the water heater to prevent thermal damage to the equipment. An
expansion tank may need to be installed in the line to the water heater in order to allow for thermal
expansion and comply with local plumbing codes.
4. The water softener should not be subject to freezing temperatures.
5. Ensure that any cartridge or in-line type filter installed prior to the water softener does not restrict
the water flow and pressure available for backwash and interfere with normal operation.
6. Appliances requiring extended periods of continuous or high flow water use (i.e. geothermal heat
pumps, swimming pools, lawn irrigation, outside hose bibs, etc.) should bypass the water softener.
(see installation diagram Fig. 1).

STEP 1: Carefully remove all components from packaging. DO NOT DISCARD PACKAGING until all
water softener components and fittings have been located.
STEP 2: Use clips and screws provided and attach bypass valve to the inlet/outlet of the control valve
(FS Series) or meter module (FSM Series). Please note that FSLM units have the meter
attached to the bypass valve rather than the control valve for shipping. IMPORTANT: All
metered units require the installer to insert the meter cable into the top of the meter module.
STEP 3: Place unit at desired installation position.
STEP 4: Shut off water at main supply. Relieve pressure by opening nearest faucet. On private well
systems, turn off power to pump and drain pressure tank. SHUT OFF POWER OR FUEL
SUPPLY TO WATER HEATER.
STEP 5: Cut main supply line as required to fit plumbing to inlet and outlet of bypass valve. DO NOT
PLUMB INLET AND OUTLET BACKWARDS. Piping should be supported. Do not apply heat
to any fitting attached to the bypass or control valve.
STEP 6: Use the provided polyethylene tubing (NO VINYL TUBING) to run drain line from control valve
discharge fitting to floor drain or sump pit capable of handling the backwash rate of the
softener (refer to specifications and flow rate on page 13). DISCHARGE END OF THE
DRAIN LINE MUST BE FIRMLY SECURED! There must be an air gap at the end of the
drain line to prevent siphoning of waste water and meet plumbing code. Total length of drain
line should be 15’ or less. AVOID OVERHEAD DRAINS.
STEP 7: Connect one end of the provided 3/8” brine line to the control valve quick connect fitting. Insert
the other end of the brine line through the hole in the brine tank and into the quick connect
fitting on the safety brine valve. Push both ends in firmlyto ensure positive seal.

STEP 8: Install overflow tubing from overflow elbow on brine tank to floor drain. Tubing must be lower
than overflow elbow at all times to brine tank overflow in case of malfunction. DO NOT
CONNECT DRAIN LINE FROM SOFTENER CONTROL VALVE TO BRINE TANK
OVERFLOW.
STEP 9: Place control valve is in the “Service” position (time of day arrow pointing to the Service
Position Indicator {see fig. 6, page 10}). Place bypass valve in the “Bypass” position (refer to
Figures 4 below). Open main supply valve or turn on power to pump on private well systems.
STEP 10: Rotate the Manual Regeneration Knob (see Fig. 5, page 7 & Fig. 6, page 10) to the Backwash
position.
STEP 11: Refer to Figure 4 bypass valve operation. Rotate bypass lever of stainless steel bypass ¼ of
the way to Service allowing unit to fill slowly. Filling the mineral tank in this position will force
any trapped air to the drain. When all air has been purged from the system and only water is
running to the drain the tank is pressurized. Fully open bypass valve to the “Service” position
and advance the controlvalve to the SERVICE position.
STEP 12: Check for leaks and correct as necessary.

STEP 13: Turn power or fuel supply back on to water heater.
STEP 14: Set the regeneration frequency(refer to timer operation for instruction).
STEP 15: Set the current time of dayon the timer (note AM and PM).
STEP 16: Fill brine tank with salt and add approximately 6 gallons of water for the initial regeneration
cycle.

How to set Time of Day:
1. Press and hold the red button to disengage the 24 hour gear.
2. Turn the large 24 hour gear until the actual time of day is at the time of day arrow.
3. Release the red button to again engage the 24 hour gear.
How to set the Days of Backwash:
Calculate the Adjusted Hardness bymultiplying the iron concentration (ppm) by3, the manganese
concentration (ppm) by5 and adding to the water hardness test results (grains).
Example: Hardness = 25 gpg (grains per gallon)
Iron = 1.0 ppm (parts per million)
Manganese = 0.2 ppm (parts per million)
Adjusted Hardness = 29 gpg [25 + (3 x 1.0) + (5 x 0.2)]
25 + 3 + 1 = 29
1. Refer to the appropriate table for your water softener model number (pages 8 and 9) to determine
how manyTIMES in a 12 day cycle the softener should regenerate. If the adjusted hardness falls
between two numbers on the chart always use the higher number (never round down).
Example: Water Softener Model FS30
3 people in family
Adjusted hardness 29 gpg
Result: Set softener to regenerate 4 TIMES in 12-day cycle (once every 3 days)
2. Rotate the skipper wheel until the number 1 is at the red pointer. Each number represents a day.
The number by the red pointer is tonight.
3. Slide the metal tabs outward on the desired days of regeneration.
How to Manually Initiate a Backwash Cycle:
1. Grab the manual regeneration knob and turn clockwise SLIGHTLY. The drive gear will engage the
backwash knob which will make a complete revolution and return to the “Service” position after the
regeneration cycle.

How to set Time of Day:
1. Press and hold the red button to disengage the 24 hour gear.
2. Turn the large 24 hour gear until the actual time of day is at the time of day arrow.
3. Release the red button to again engage the 24 hour gear.
How to set the Frequency of Backwash:
1. Calculate the Adjusted Hardness by multiplying the iron concentration (ppm) by3 and adding to
the water hardness test results.
Example: Hardness = 25 gpg (grains per gallon)
Iron = 1.0 ppm (part per million)
Manganese = 0.2 ppm (parts per million)
Adjusted Hardness = 29 gpg [25 + (3 x 1.0) + (5 X 0.2)]
25 + 3 +1 = 29
2. Lift the “People Dial” on the gallon setting wheel.
3. Rotate the “People Dial” until the numberof people in the household is aligned with the adjusted
water hardness.
4. Release the “People Dial” and ensure that it reengages the gallon wheel.
How to Manually Initiate a Backwash Cycle:
1. Grab the manual regeneration knob and turn clockwise SLIGHTLY.
The drive gear will engage the backwash knob which will make a complete revolution and return to
the “Service” position after the regeneration cycle.
